NSF-SciFy Full Awards

NSF-SciFy contains 412,155 NSF award records enriched with generated nontechnical abstracts, verifiable claims, and investigation proposals.

The source technical abstracts come from the NSF awards database snapshot nsf_awards-0325.json. The generated fields were produced sequentially with the following task-specific LoRA adapters:

These adapters were trained on the materials-science plus 20K NSF-SciFy data. This repository contains their generated annotations for the full awards snapshot; it is a dataset, not a new model trained on all 412,155 records.

Load

from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("darpa-scify/nsf-scify")
full = dataset["full"]
print(full[0])

Fields

award_id, award_year, title, directorate, division: NSF award metadata.
abstract: original technical abstract.
non_technical_abstract: parsed generated nontechnical abstract.
verifiable_claims: parsed list of generated verifiable claims.
investigation_proposals: parsed list of generated investigation proposals.
*_raw: raw model response retained for auditing and possible repair.
generation_error, *_parse_error: error details when generation or parsing failed.
generation_success: true only when all three parsed outputs are present and nonempty and no error marker is present.

Generation quality

Using the strict generation_success definition:

Status	Records	Percentage
Successful	410,313	99.553%
Unsuccessful	1,842	0.447%
Total	412,155	100%

The unsuccessful set includes overlapping categories: 1,085 records with missing, empty, or unparsed claims; 790 with missing, empty, or unparsed investigation proposals; 42 with an empty or missing nontechnical abstract; and 12 with an explicit generation error. Raw model responses are retained where available.

Important limitations

All three enriched fields are model-generated and have not been exhaustively verified by humans. A successfully parsed record can still contain factual, extraction, relevance, repetition, or writing-quality errors. Users should validate generated content for their application and use generation_success and the error fields when filtering records.
